Online Windows XP simulator prank
April Fools' Day is approaching and you might need some new ideas of how to prank your friends. A classic office prank is when someone takes a screenshot of the others desktop and opens the image full screen, making the other believe that his computer is frozen. The only downside of this prank is that people quickly realize what's going on and they close the window.
In this article I want to present a more effective way of a similar prank where people can actually interact with the screenshot.
Geek Prank is an online old Windows XP simulator people can interact with, making the scenario more real, not like a simple frozen image.
There have been other similar projects, like the Windows 93 website which presented an imaginary operating system which has never existed.

How to use?
First of all activate full screen, pressing the F11 key in Windows. This will hide the address bar and the browser frame.
Use the website as if you'd interact with an operating system. Open and close the windows, use the Internet Explorer, play with the games, discover the Start menu.
Don't worry if your computer throws a blue death CMOS error, because that's just a fake one, another part of the prank.
Now go ahead and open GeekPrank.com on someone else's computer, go full screen and wait for their reaction :)
